Is it possible to insert a step in the middle of a flowchart and have the subsequent steps move/reflow to make space for the inserted step?

@Al Avery - There should be an insert shape action when you select a connection line:

@Robert Johnson Thank you for the speedy reply. I hadn’t noticed that before – and it is helpful to some extent. I does require that you make space for the new shape. What I was hoping for is a way to insert a shape and have the following shapes move/make way for the new shape. If the inserted shape is in the middle of a large flowchart, moving a bunch of things around first can be time consuming. I think OmniGraffle can do this with their AutoLayout option. Thanks again.
